ABC Amber LIT Converter converts Microsoft Reader's LIT files to a variety of output formats (PDF, HTML, CHM, RTF, HLP, DOC etc.) The software also supports a batch conversion and command line parameters. Note that some of the output formats have dependencies on external applications eg. CHM requires Microsoft HTML Help Workshop etc., but others eg. PDF, HTML do not.
Reportedly functional in Linux using WINE.
Note: The main download is offline, linking to Softpedia.
